Study on the Softening Mechanism and Control of Red-Bed Soft Rock under Seawater Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
Red-bed soft rock easily softens and disintegrates when it comes into contact with water, which is the main factor restricting the application of soft rock as an engineering filler.

Exploiting W. Ellison model for seawater communication at gigahertz frequencies based on world ocean atlas data

open access: yesETRI Journal, 2020
Electromagnetic (EM) waves used to send signals under seawater are normally restricted to low frequencies (f) because of sudden exponential increases of attenuation (α) at higher f.

Tun formation is not a prerequisite for desiccation tolerance in the marine tidal tardigrade Echiniscoides sigismundi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The so-called ‘tun’ state is best known from limno-terrestrial tardigrades and rotifers that rely on this compact body shape for anhydrobiotic survival.

Highly Scalable, Raspberry‐Like Microbeads with Nano‐/Micro‐Confined Hybrid Hydrogel Desiccants for Rapid Atmospheric Water Harvesting

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable nano‐/micro‐confinement strategy is developed, where polyacrylamide (PAM)‐LiCl hybrid desiccants are confined within hollow nanoparticles (HNPs) and assembled into raspberry‐like microbeads. The beads have a hydrogel‐rich core and an NP‐rich shell for fast absorption and desorption, releasing water 13.6 L kg⁻¹ day⁻¹.

Persistent organic pollutants in the Atlantic and southern oceans and oceanic atmosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) continue to cycle through the atmosphere and hydrosphere despite banned or severely restricted usages. Global scale analyses of POPs are challenging, but knowledge of the current distribution of these compounds is ...

Self‐Assembled Gallium Sulfide (GaS) Heterostructures Enabling Efficient Water Splitting and Selective Ammonia Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Gallium sulfide (GaS) forms self‐assembled heterostructures with its native oxide, exhibiting high performance in water splitting and ultrasensitive and selective ammonia detection. Surface defects and controlled oxidation enhance catalytic activity and sensing response.

Metal Nanoclusters for Cancer Imaging and Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary and discussion of the core–shell design capabilities of metal nanoclusters (NCs) at the atomic level for cancer imaging and treatment. It offers essential insights into the design principles of metal NCs while also encouraging the exploration of other nanomaterials and their potential theranostic ...

Solvent‐Induced Octahedral Self‐Assembly of Prussian Blue and Its Applications in Sodium‐Ion Capacitors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the stepwise assembly process of octahedral Prussian Blue (PB) particles in glycerol. Initially, smaller cubic PB nanoparticles form and interact in the solvent. Over time, these particles undergo dissolution and reassembly, leading to the formation of well‐defined octahedral structures with minimized surface energy.
